People of the Book pt. 2

Thursday Oct 20, 2022

In this weeks episode, part 2 of 2, I defend the thesis that Christians were people of the Bible in accordance with their historical and cultural context. While recognizing that Christians most likely didn’t have access to their own physical copy of the complete Bible, Christians certainly had access to the contents of the scriptures and relied heavily upon them for faith, life, and practice while devoting themselves to the instructions of the book.
In part 2 we discuss:
Jewish Communities and the Book
Christian Communities
The Distribution of Manuscripts
Early Christian Statements on Scripture
Conclusion
